What to Watch Out For
Safety Instructions When working with the FRITZ!Box Fon WLAN 7340, ob-
serve the following security instructions in order to protect
yourself and the FRITZ!Box from harm.
Do not install the FRITZ!Box during an electrical
storm.
Disconnect FRITZ!Box from the power supply during
electrical storms.
Never let liquids get inside the FRITZ!Box. Otherwise,
electric shocks or short circuits may result.
The FRITZ!Box is intended for indoor use only.
Do not open the FRITZ!Box housing. The device con-
tains hazardous components and should only be
opened by authorized repair technicians.
Handling the
FRITZ!Box
You can either place FRITZ!Box on a horizontal surface or
mount it on a wall. Please note the following:
Place or hang the FRITZ!Box in a dry location that is
free of dust and protected from direct sunlight.
For ideal operating conditions, mount the FRITZ!Box
on a wall with the cables connected on the bottom.
Do not place FRITZ!Box on excessively heat-sensitive
surfaces, as the base of the device can heat up dur-
ing normal operation.
Make sure that the ventilation slits are unobstructed.
For this reason the FRITZ!Box should not be placed on
a carpet or on upholstered furniture. The ventilation
slits provide for air cooling of the FRITZ!Box.
When connecting FRITZ!Box to your computer using
the network, remember to take the length of the ca-
ble into account.
9
Security and Handling
If you would like to establish wireless connections
between FRITZ!Box and the computer, position the
device at a central location.
Make sure to keep sufficient distance from potential
sources of interference like microwave devices or
electric devices with large metal housings.

2 FRITZ!Box Fon WLAN 7340
An Overview
The FRITZ!Box connects your computers directly with your DSL or VDSL
line. Each connected computer can establish an Internet connection
over the FRITZ!Box. As a WLAN access point, FRITZ!Box offers you the
possibility of connecting your computer to the DSL or VDSL line wire-
lessly.
The FRITZ!Box is a Private Branch Exchange (PBX) for making telephone
calls via the Internet and the fixed-line network (ISDN and analog).
PBX Two analog telephones, fax machines and answering ma-
chines can be connected to FRITZ!Box.
Using Cordless
Telephones
Thanks to the DECT function, the FRITZ!Box can be used as
a basis station for cordless phones. Every cordless phone
that supports the DECT-GAP standard can be registered at
the FRITZ!Box.
Connecting
Computers
Two computers can be connected directly to the FRITZ!Box
using the LAN ports.
You can also connect a network hub or switch to the LAN
ports so that even more computers can be connected to
FRITZ!Box.
WLAN Access Point The FRITZ!Box is a WLAN access point. All computers that
support WLAN can be wirelessly connected to the
FRITZ!Box.

Locale Network All of the computers connected with the FRITZ!Box consti-
tute a network and can share access to any files released
for file sharing.
Internet All of the computers connected to the FRITZ!Box can ac-
cess the Internet.
The FRITZ!Box works as a DSL router, making the Internet
connection available to all connected computers. All con-
nected computers can then use the Internet connection at
the same time.
Firewall The FRITZ!Box is equipped with an integrated firewall. The
integrated firewall protects your network from attacks
from the Internet as long as the FRITZ!Box is operated as a
router.
USB Port The FRITZ!Box is equipped with two ports for USB devices,
to which you can connect USB storage devices (hard drive,
stick), a printer, one of the FRITZ!WLAN USB Sticks, a USB
hub or other devices (see page 62).
The USB port supports the USB 2.0 and USB 1.1 stan-
dards.
If you use one of the FRITZ!WLAN USB Sticks by AVM, AVM
Stick & Surf technology is at your disposal. Use
Stick & Surf to adopt the WLAN security settings from the
FRITZ!Box quickly and conveniently.
For connecting a printer, FRITZ!Box has a printer server. Al-
ternatively, the USB remote connection is available for the
use of printers.
Media Server An integrated media server makes music, image and
video files available in the local network. USB storage with
a media collection is simply connected to the FRITZ!Box. A
suitable playback device linked to the local network can
then playback these media contents. Suitable devices in-
clude all devices compatible with the UPnP AV standard.
Network Devices Other network devices can also be connected to the net-
work ports of the FRITZ!Box, for instance game consoles.

3.4 Connecting Computer(s) Wirelessly via WLAN
Using WLAN you can connect one or multiple computers
with the FRITZ!Box wirelessly.
The wireless WLAN connection is independent of the oper-
ating system used. Each computer to be connected to the
FRITZ!Box via WLAN must be equipped with a compatible
WLAN adapter, for instance the FRITZ!WLAN USB Stick.
Many modern computers and notebooks have an integrat-
ed WLAN adapter.

AVM Stick & Surf If you are using the FRITZ!WLAN USB Stick N. the
FRITZ!WLAN USB Stick N 2.4 or the FRITZ!WLAN USB Stick
by AVM as a WLAN adapter, you can establish a secure
WLAN connection quickly and conveniently using the AVM
Stick & Surf technology.
1. Switch on your computer.
2. Insert your FRITZ!WLAN USB Stick into one of the USB
ports on the FRITZ!Box.
The WLAN security settings are transmitted automati-
cally to the FRITZ!WLAN USB Stick. The “INFO” LED on
the FRITZ!Box begins flashing rapidly.
As soon as the “INFO” LED stops flashing, transmis-
sion of the settings has been concluded.
3. Remove the FRITZ!WLAN USB Stick from the device.
4. Now insert the FRITZ!WLAN USB Stick into the USB
port on your computer.
The security settings saved on the FRITZ!WLAN USB Stick
are applied to the computer. Now the FRITZ!Box and
FRITZ!WLAN USB Stick are connected with each other wire-
lessly.
Establishing a WLAN Connection Using WPS
If you are using a WLAN adapter from another manufactur-
er and your WLAN adapter supports WPS (Wi-Fi Protected
Setup), you can also use this mechanism to establish the
WLAN connection between your computer and the
FRITZ!Box. For detailed instructions about how to do so,
see the section “WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup)” from
page 142.
For more information, see the manual on the AVM
FRITZ!WLAN USB Stick N, the manual for the AVM
FRITZ!WLAN USB Stick N 2.4, or the manual for the AVM
FRITZ!WLAN USB Stick.

If you are using a WLAN adapter from another manufactur-
er, you can also establish the WLAN connection manually.
To do so, proceed as follows:
1. Switch on your computer.
2. Install the WLAN adapter in your computer along with
the appropriate software. Please take note of the in-
structions in the documentation of the adapter.
3. In order to establish a WLAN connection to the
FRITZ!Box, you can use the WLAN software for the
WLAN adapter, or the WLAN software supplied with
the operating system.
Establishing a
Connection
The FRITZ!Box is delivered with preset values for WLAN se-
curity. You must enter these values during the configura-
tion of the WLAN adapter.
If you would like to establish a WLAN connection using
these preset values, then your WLAN adapter must sup-
port the WPA encryption procedure.
1. Start the WLAN software.
2. Enter the following values for the connection be-
tween the FRITZ!Box and the WLAN adapter:
3. Confirm your entries using the relevant button in the
user interface (for instance, “OK” or “Connect”).
Now your WLAN adapter and the FRITZ!Box are connected
with each other wirelessly.

Please see the instructions in the section “Opening the
User Interface” on page 26. See also the information on
WLAN security in the section “Security” from page 131.
WPA Not Supported If your WLAN adapter does not support WPA encryption,
you must convert the encryption set in the FRITZ!Box to
WEP. For this you must change the WLAN settings in the
FRITZ!Box. To do so, proceed as follows:
1. Connect the FRITZ!Box and the computer using the
network cable (yellow) (see the section “Connecting
Computers to the LAN Port” from page 15).
2. Start a web browser on your computer.
3. Enter fritz.box
in the address field of the browser.
4. Select the “WLAN / Security” menu.
5. Then select WEP encryption and enter a network key.
6. Click the “Apply button.
A window is displayed with the WLAN security set-
tings.
7. Make a note of the settings or print out the page by
clicking the printer icon in the toolbar.
8. Close the user interface and clear the connection be-
tween the FRITZ!Box and the computer. Remove the
network cable (yellow).
9. Configure your WLAN adapter with the security set-
tings entered in the FRITZ!Box.
The WLAN connection between your WLAN adapter and
the FRITZ!Box will be established.
We strongly recommend the use of a WLAN adapter that
supports WPA or WPA2 (for instance, an AVM
FRITZ!WLAN USB Stick, see also page 18). WEP is out of
date and data encrypted with WEP can be deciphered
within minutes.
